research Toll-Like Receptor Function in Acute Wounds
Toll-like receptors are important for wound healing, but can slow it down in diabetic wounds.
research Tactile sensitivity in the rat: a correlation between receptor structure and function
Rats have different touch receptors in their paws that help with movement and handling objects.
research Role for the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor in Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Targeting EGFR may help reduce hair loss from chemotherapy.
research Reduced serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor in patients with first onset vitiligo
People with first-time vitiligo have lower levels of a certain brain protein compared to healthy individuals.
research Transient Ca2+ entry by plasmalogen-mediated activation of receptor potential cation channel promotes AMPK activity
Plasmalogens activate a channel in cells that may stimulate hair growth.
research Analysis of the expression pattern of the carrier protein transthyretin and its receptor megalin in the human scalp skin and hair follicles: hair cycle-associated changes
The proteins transthyretin and megalin are more present in the growth phase of hair, suggesting they might affect hair health and growth.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss and Negative Psychological Impact: Possible Role of Brain-derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF)
Women with Female Pattern Hair Loss may experience more stress, anxiety, and depression, and have lower levels of BDNF, which could predict the psychological impact.
research Hair growth inhibition by psychoemotional stress: a mouse model for neural mechanisms in hair growth control
Stress can stop hair growth in mice, and treatments can reverse this effect.
research Neural Mechanisms of Hair Growth Control
Nerves and chemicals in the body can affect hair growth and loss.
research (Neuro-)endocrinology of epithelial hair follicle stem cells
Hormones and neuroendocrine factors control hair growth and color, and more research could lead to new hair treatment options.
research Overexpression of neurotrophin 4 in skin enhances myelinated sensory endings but does not influence sensory neuron number
Increasing neurotrophin 4 in skin boosts nerve endings but not sensory neuron count.
research Innervated Biomaterials for Improved Cutaneous Wound Healing: A Review of Recent Advancements and Future Prospects
New biomaterials can improve wound healing by promoting nerve and tissue regeneration.
research Pathomechanism of androgenetic alopecia and new treatment
Male pattern baldness is caused by certain cells in hair follicles and could potentially be treated by targeting a specific growth factor, TGF-β1.
research Macrophage-Stimulating Protein Promotes Hair Growth Ex Vivo and Induces Anagen from Telogen Stage Hair Follicles In Vivo
Macrophage-stimulating protein helps hair grow and can start hair growth phase in mice and human hair samples.
research Finasteride-induced depression: new insights into possible pathomechanisms
Finasteride may increase depression by reducing brain cell growth.
research Pubertal hormones increase hippocampal expression of α4βδ GABAA receptors
Hormones during puberty increase certain receptors in the brain, and this change is influenced by estrogen levels.
